When will global milk production hit a tipping point?
With global milk prices falling, the question is when will key exporting countries reach a tipping point where production starts to dip.
Last night’s auction saw the GDT Price Index drop 5.1%, compared to the previous auction.
However, the biggest concern will be the massive drop in whole milk powder prices: down 6.7% to US$3099/MT.
